Gates and Obama

Henry Louis Gates Jr. a black man made assumptions based on a white police officer's race. Gates stupidly created a disturbance and stupidly got himself arrested. Now Gates is crying racism and demanding an apology.

The professor's narcissistic sense of entitlement is rivaled only by the president's. President Obama made a knee-jerk assumption that the white officer "acted stupidly." He insulted the officer during a national press conference, no less.

Gates and President Obama seem to think they have a free pass to wildly accuse, disrespect and blame a white officer. It's clear who the racists are, and who is owed an apology.

President Obama do us all a favor and tell us you know more about your health care plan then you now about the Gates incident.
